An often hilarious and always relevant memoir about one teen boy's battle with brain cancer and his Starlight Children's Foundation wish: to meet Mikhail Gorbachev in Russia and plead for nuclear disarmament and world peace. It's 1986, and Jeff is an average fifteen-year-old: he thinks a lot about dating, he bounces around with his friends, and he's trying his hardest to get a car. Conversely, the world around him feels crazy: the United States and the Soviet Union are at glaring odds, with their leaders in a standoff, and that awful word, "nuclear," is on everyone's mind. Then, boom--Jeff learns that he has brain cancer and it's likely terminal. Well, that puts a damper on his summer plans and romantic prospects, doesn't it? Jeff's family rallies around him, but they are fiercely complicated--especially Jeff's father, a man who can't say "I love you" even during the worst of Jeff's treatment. So when the Starlight Children's Foundation offers to grant Jeff a wish, he makes one certain to earn his father's respect: he asks to travel to Moscow and meet with Mikhail Gorbachev to discuss nuclear disarmament and ending the Cold War. Nothing like achieving world peace to impress a distant father, right? Jeff has always been one to aim high. Jeff's story is dark, but it's also funny, romantic, and surprising. As his life swings from incredibly ordinary to absolutely incredible, he grapples with the big questions of mortality, war, love, hope, and miracles.Binding Type: Hardcover

Eh. It's fine
Color: Black
I feel like this mascara is okay. Not fantastic, not terrible. I like a dramatic lash and this mascara doesn't give me the drama. I have been using it for about a month, so I can't really speak much to how well it helps the lashes grow. I haven't noticed any difference yet. It does flake a bit, but not a lot. Really just okay.

Doesn’t flake or smudge!
Color: Black
The is the first mascara I’ve ever used that truly stays put. I’ve tried several other brands (including many with tubing effects) that advertise smudge proof but aren’t. Worth buying!

Worked Nice
Color: Black
I really like this mascara much better than I thought I would. I'm not a fan of false lashes and since my own lashes are pretty pathetic I've tried just about every mascara out there to find one that at least attempts to make it look like I've actually got lashes. I was skeptical at first but this one actually worked quite well. It has a large brush but that did a good job at really separating and drawing them out so they looked longer and fuller. I also had less issue with overshooting it onto the eye lid/brow area so less Q tip cleanup required.
I liked the mascara itself, it went on smoothly and felt nice on my lashes. It wasn't at all clumpy or cakey and was nice and light on. I also didn't have any issue with it flaking off during the day. It is a much higher price point than I typically pay for a single mascara and is not a really large tube, but I did notice I wasn't using as much of it as usual and I do like how it felt and looked on my lashes.

It works, easy to apply and smells great
It works, easy to apply, perfect for people who practice sports. Great smell, easy to apply, doesn’t leave strikes on skin and should be reapplied after swimming or after 80min, or less if you get wet. Keep it away from sun and heat.
